Psalmus 50

I hid not my face * from shame and spitting.

Have mercy on me, O God, * according to thy great mercy.

  1. Et secúndum multitúdinem miseratiónum tuárum, * dele iniquitátem meam.

    2. And according to the multitude of thy tender mercies * blot out my iniquity.

  2. Amplius lava me ab iniquitáte mea: * et a peccáto meo munda me.

    3. Wash me yet more from my iniquity, * and cleanse me from my sin.

  3. Quóniam iniquitátem meam ego cognósco: * et peccátum meum contra me est semper.

    4. For I know my iniquity, * and my sin is always before me.

  4. Tibi soli peccávi, et malum coram te feci: * ut justificéris in sermónibus tuis, et vincas cum judicáris.

    5. To thee only have I sinned, and have done evil before thee: * that thou mayst be justified in thy words, and mayst overcome when thou art judged.

  5. Ecce enim in iniquitátibus concéptus sum: * et in peccátis concépit me mater mea.

    6. For behold I was conceived in iniquities; * and in sins did my mother conceive me.

  6. Ecce enim veritátem dilexísti: * incérta et occúlta sapiéntiæ tuæ manifestásti mihi.

    7. For behold thou hast loved truth: * the uncertain and hidden things of thy wisdom thou hast made manifest to me.

  7. Aspérges me hyssópo, et mundábor: * lavábis me, et super nivem dealbábor.

  8. Audítui meo dabis gáudium et lætítiam: * et exsultábunt ossa humiliáta.

    9. To my hearing thou shalt give joy and gladness: * and the bones that have been humbled shall rejoice.

  9. Avérte fáciem tuam a peccátis meis: * et omnes iniquitátes meas dele.

    10. Turn away thy face from my sins, * and blot out all my iniquities.

  10. Cor mundum crea in me, Deus: * et spíritum rectum ínnova in viscéribus meis.

    11. Create a clean heart in me, O God: * and renew a right spirit within my bowels.

  17. Sacrifícium Deo spíritus contribulátus: * cor contrítum et humiliátum, Deus, non despícies.

    18. A sacrifice to God is an afflicted spirit: * a contrite and humbled heart, O God, thou wilt not despise.

  18. Benígne fac, Dómine, in bona voluntáte tua Sion: * ut ædificéntur muri Jerúsalem.

    19. Deal favourably, O Lord, in thy good will with Sion; * that the walls of Jerusalem may be built up.

  19. Tunc acceptábis sacrifícium justítiæ, oblatiónes, et holocáusta: * tunc impónent super altáre tuum vítulos.

    20. Then shalt thou accept the sacrifice of justice, oblations and whole burnt offerings: * then shall they lay calves upon thy altar.

Capitulum Responsorium Versus

Ier 11:19

Veníte, mittámus lignum in panem eius, † et eradámus eum de terra vivéntium, * et nomen eius non memorétur ámplius.

Come, let us put wood on his bread, and cut him off from the land of the living, and let his name be remembered no more.


Hymnus

1. Thirty years among us dwelling, His appointed time fulfilled, Born for this, he meets his passion, For that this he freely willed: On the cross the Lamb is lifted, Where his life-blood shall be spilled. 2. He endured the nails, the spitting, Vinegar, and spear, and reed; From that holy body broken Blood and water forth proceed: Earth, and stars, and sky, and ocean, By that flood from stain are free. 3. Faithful cross! above all other, One and only noble tree! None in foliage, none in blossom, None in fruit thy peers may be; Sweetest wood and sweetest iron! Sweetest weight is hung on thee. 4. Bend thy boughs, O tree of glory! Thy relaxing sinews bend; For awhile the ancient rigour, That thy birth bestowed, suspend; And the King of heavenly beauty On thy bosom gently tend! 5. Thou alone wast counted worthy This world's ransom to uphold; For a shipwrecked race preparing Harbour, like the ark of old; With the sacred blood anointed From the smitten Lamb that rolled. 6. To the Trinity be glory Everlasting, as is meet; Equal to the Father, equal To the Son, and Paraclete: Trinal Unity, whose praises All created things repeat. Amen.
